Abstract

The research aims to contribute to the evaluation process of the Brazilian scientific production through analysis of information sources used to define journal classification in all areas of evaluation of the Qualis Periódicos. Regarding the information sources used to define strata A1, A2 and B1, the specific objectives are: 1) to identify the sources used and to classify the type: database, directory, index, archive, among others; 2) to analyze the types of specific selection criteria to certify the scientific and/or editorial quality of journals; 3) to compare the use which has been made of these sources in different areas of evaluation of post graduate programs, considering their degree of selectivity as adopted criteria.
